[quote=Anonymous]I get that the Scottish and Irish schools are 4 years and English are 3. Are there any other major differences once you are there? Which schools are best socially, emotionally and academically for Americans. My kid is smart and a good tester, 35 ACT first try as a junior his GPA is high but not perfect. He goes to a Big 3 private and consequently will not have enough AP's without a lot of self- study to apply to Oxford or Cambridge,... He is used to a DC private school that I do think coddles them in terms of second chances, teacher hand-holding etc. I know the British system is much more hands off... Any other helpful experiences or info is appreciated.[/quote]
